Have you rebooted?
Meanwhile, if the issue persists, downgrading is not the first thing you should think about, you can download the rom and flash it again with your updater app.
I have rebooted several times.

You no dey here when that guy carry e matter concerning A30 from Samsung thread to come here to seek for assistance?

What happened to his thread? Where were these so-called champions they ought to offer him the assistance he so needed at that point in time?

It's why they'll never be worth my mention. I was wondering why Genius43 and GPtech were replying them. Even Grandmufti and Aunty Fibo lock up.

A10 better pass Mi 10 pro. No wahala we gree. Are you happy? Oya don't let the door hit you on the way out oh. Goodbye. Allah kiyaye hanya. Odaro. Kachifo. Wa todè.

The guys are just misfits, not worth any attention. Wasted intellects. Na people like dem give Africa a bad name, we never see progress but only see means to bring others down.

I repeat misfits....

Let me just answer you. You can get best and cheap deal right now from Black Arab.

As for case, you can get a good case depending on your budget from AliExpress.

It is not everything you wait for real users we can answer most of your questions
The RN7 Gcam you posted here some time ago which I downloaded and use for my RN7 surprisingly worked for my RN8T. the only issue I noticed is that the PORTRAIT MODE force closes the camera (not that I care though)

This is the method I used in upgrading, after which I rebooted severally.

I use RN8 and I know someone who uses MiA3.

MiA3 has a better AMOLED display with vibrant colour but a lower pixel density (ppi) than the RN8 (IPS LCD with 400+ppi). Here, the colours on MiA3 are more vibrant especially blacks but clarity belongs to RN8 due to higher ppi.

MiA3 has in-screen fingerprint scanner while RN8 has the traditional backside fingerprint scanner. MiA3 clearly the champ!

MiA3 has a smaller screen size of around 6.1" compared to RN8's 6.3" screen. It depends on what you want.

MiA3 is stock android (...devoid of any baked-in user interface asides Google's) while RN8 is MIUI-based with some add-ons. For now, I like MIUI. Again, it depends on what you want.

They both use Snapdragon 665 chip so performance should be just about the same thing but I feel MiA3 edges RN8 cos of its stock android nature.

MiA3 has Bluetooth 5.0 while RN8 has Bluetooth 4.2. MiA3's camera is better too.

In the end, it might still go down to Stock android Vs. MIUI.
No device with a 720p screen in 2020 should be compared with a 1080p screen. Whether na lcd or amoled. For that reason alone rn8 trumps mi a3.


Mi a3 supports ufs 2.1 which is another edge tho.

@the bolded, while the in display finger print scanner is a more recent technology, it's slower than the conventional FS and not as reliable.

it's not necessarily based on assumption.

There's two things to note here. When we're talking about displays esp in this Mi A3 vs RN8 case, we have

1. Display panel/type: IPS LCD vs AMOLED

2. Resolution (clarity of objects on the display): Full High Definition 1080P (LCD/RN8) vs HIgh definition 720P (Amoled/Mi A3)

it depends on what you like. Some people cannot downgrade from 1080P to 720P just because of amoled.

others prefer the design and sleekness of amoleds to full resolution.

It's simply a case of my apples to your oranges.

Try to see both sides of the debate here.

Are you seriously saying a 720p display is better than a 1080p display? Even when it's obvious that mi a3 has a way lower ppi!


Do you know what happens when a 720p screen plays a 1080p video?

A 1080p display should never be compared to a 720p display, Amoled or not.

Don't mind him, he doesn't know that higher resolution videos on his screen would look very similar to720p videos.

Please, don't compare them. Madgoat didn't do more than that Mr. Humblesmith. In fact, madgoat was very wise to criticise for people to give him reason to get a Mi device and we did. In fact, he said "my device is on its way and people will be shocked". That was when I knew madgoat got a Mi device.

Mr. Humblesmith on the other hand isn't criticising. His on the other hand is more of trolling and deliberately provoking people on the thread.

At last it depends on the buyer's choice..
Amoled or lcd..
